Same here - a couple of friends have asked, "Why didn't you get the invisible kind?" But I know it wasn't a criticism at all, just curiosity. Other than that, all comments from friends have been positive -- and from some pretty serious sarcastic jokester types too! Most comments fall in the categories of "Good for you!" or "They make you look younger." No comments or horrified expressions from strangers -- they either don't notice or don't think it's that big a deal.
